    The BitBlt function performs a bit-block transfer of the color data corresponding to a rectangle of pixels from the specified source device context into a destination device context.

    Copy graphics (or parts of them) from one window to another, from one graphics object to another.

    You certainly asked your question in the right forum section. These guys/gals know more about this than I. The explanation I gave it straight out of the API viewer.

    I did find this, however, and it might help in your understanding.

    I always enjoy getting the message that says you have responded to my post Jim. I know I'll get good information. Thanks.

    I guess you are ok too Hack - I filed away that tutorial to go over when I have some time.

    Thanks

    related to your question:

    Is there a blit function to capture iregular shapes?
    Also, Is there a way to "bend" a blitted image as a parellellagram or even better - as an arc?
